Hello Faddah, Hello Mama...

IowaHawk strikes again with a theme song for Occupy Wall Street.  Sample stanza:

We are saving
This whole nation
With some squad car
Defecation
We went marching
in Zucotti 
And got applauded by the Nazi Party

WTF, China?

China is building very strange things in its deserts, and nobody seems to know why...

Historical Unemployment...

A very nice graphical “heat map” that the WSJ keeps updated...

Hydrogen alpha Sun...

Our sun, as seen in hydrogen alpha light.  Gorgeous.  Click to enlarge.  From APOD, of course...

Time-Lapse Movie of the Earth, from the ISS...

Awesome.  The aurora borealis and lightning strikes are particularly beautiful and interesting...

Shameful?

This guy – a law professor! – thinks it's shameful that someone solicited in the University for care packages to be sent to our soldiers overseas.

Personally, I think it's shameful that an academic institution (Suffolk University law school, in this case) allows someone with that attitude to indoctrinate our youth.
